I work with only a handful of people, addressing the whole person — mind, brain, body, and spirit. I've practiced for over 20 years, trained several thousand providers, done MDMA clinical research, written book chapters and a book, continually seeking better answers for patients.Medication is one tool among many. Sometimes it’s helpful, sometimes it needs to be optimized or tapered, and sometimes other interventions are more effective. The goal is always long-term wellbeing, not dependence.My approach is integrative and collaborative. I combine conventional psychiatry with trauma-informed care, lifestyle medicine, nutrition, somatic and nervous-system work, and, where appropriate and legal, psychedelic-assisted therapy. Treatment is individualized and continuously refined based on what actually creates change.Ultimately, I aim for more than symptom reduction and maintenance treatments. My work focuses on restoring resilience, clarity, connection, and the capacity to live a meaningful, engaged life.
